Directions
Beef Mexican Casserole (Um Gala), I grew up with my mother cooking this and loved it everytime She got it from my aunt And I’m not sure why it’s called Um Gala but I think it’s because someone after taking a bite, said, Ummmm good or maybe ummm golly this is good! This was one of my mom’s favorites to take to pot lucks and she made it for me when I would visit from college I made it last night and my 8 year old daughter loved it and my DH couldn’t stop talking about it (If you want more meat add more meat And if 1/2 cup of Ro-Tel tomatoes makes it too spicy (like for kids) then substitute some of it with regular canned diced tomatoes Or if you like it really spicy add more Also, to save time, use bagged tortilla chips ), This tasted good, I only put 4 stars though simply because it was not the best Mexican Casserole I’ve eaten It tasted alot like a beef enchilada w/alot of cheese except it was in a casserole form It was definately nothing out of this world for me but was good and def edible , Excellent! This was exactly what I was looking for because I had some items to use before they got too old I followed the recipe except that I was needing a recipe to use part of a green pepper I had, part of a red bell pepper, and parts of a white onion and red onion so used all of those together just to get rid of them I also used more hamburger meat, used a whole can of rotel tomatoes and added extra garlic powder Also, I had some flour tortillas in addition to the corn tortilla chips so I put both in DH prefers flour tortillas so he really liked it It turned out great ! Thanks southern!
